He was born June 23, 1937 in Selma, AL to the late Henderson Caldwell and Hattye Lee Dudley Caldwell.
Mr. Caldwell moved to Columbus at age 15; graduated from Jordan Vocational High School and attended Troy University.
He was in the printing business for many years and was manager of Blue Cross Blue Shield's printing department before retiring at age 50 as the company was merging with the Atlanta Corp. and restructuring.

Before moving back to Columbus, he lived in Tuscaloosa, AL for 10 years and enjoyed going to all the sporting events- especially Alabama Football, of which he was an avid fan!
